Magnetostrictive position sensors

Jul 11, 2012

Posichron PCST27 sensors allow for precise positioning of hydraulic cylinders. Rod profile design allows them easy installation within the cylinder. Designed specifically for the integration inside of large hydraulic cylinders that are used in harsh environments, the rod profile designs allows them to be easily installed in the cylinder and detect piston positions.

Sensors consist of magnetostrictive waveguide and a movable position magnet. Comes in resistant stainless steel, protection cass of IP68, and are pressure resistant up to 15 bar. Measurement lengths from 0 to 5,750 mm and pulse (start/stop) or SSI output available.
